If you wear a spot in your belt(from trying to move the sled when it was frozen to the ground), will it make it slip on take off?

If you put an hourglass on your belt, you should just replace it before before it frags and takes out your crank seal...

But, no. It should not slip on launch, it will make the sled shudder under acceleration.

Had that happen to me last winter, the belt blew within 50 miles after that.

Just replace it. the belt will run ya somewhere between 65-85 bucks depending on what brand, where ya get it etc. If it shreds, its gonna cost alot more than that, and it will probly happen 10 miles from the nearest road or trail access point, when its bone-ass cold, and dark with noone else with you or riding by to help.
